Other Friday action will take Crater to Klamath Falls. - "While the Black Tornado of Medford is perched atop the circuit, it has a rugged week's work cut out for itself. Grants Pass, although running sec ond, has recorded six .triumphs to Medford's four and has dropped only one game. CP Completing , Medford still must get over Crater to keep at the head of the standings but the outcome of the loop chase is expected to hinge much on the Friday contention here with the Cave men. Grants Pass completes Its regular loop slate against the Tornado, while Medford will have two dates the fol lowing week. Win or lose Fri day, the Cavemen still will be in the running for league honors. The Crater-Medford action Wednesday will be just a sin gle game. On Friday just the ! first Medf ord-Grants Pass fray will count in the standings but both Crater-Klamath tussles will go into the standings. Crater is still in the running for at least a tie for the title but both Klamath Falls and Ashland are out of the race. Either Tom Laurance or Jerry Anderson will pitch against Crater with Bill An horn or Wayne Allen on the hill for the Comets.

Norton, Dumas, Long Eye World Records By HAL WOOD Fresno, Calif. -(UPD- Sprinter Ray Norton, high - jumper Charley Dumas and shot-putter Dallas Long went into serious training today as they took dead aim at some new world records in the Coliseum relays which will be held at Los Angeles Friday. Nearing perfection in their chosen events, this trio of athletes could turn the track and field world upside down with the big crowd at Los Angeles cheering them on. Norton, particularly, will be taking a shot at the 9.2 second mark in the 100-yard dash an elusive figure that the boys have been shooting at for a decade. ' The spindly San Jose State Negro had the chance to do it Saturday in the West Coast Relays here. But he eased up at the finish line and was clocked in 9.3 - equalling the world record. "I had no idea that I was running that fast," said Nor ton after he heard the time for his preliminary. "I'm sure that if I had run all out, I would have come in with a 9.2." Edged Bobby Morrow In the finals, Norton was clocked in 9.4 as he nosed out the great Olympic champ ion, Bobby Morrow of Abi lene, Texas, by inches. This race was marred by four false starts, however, and Nor ton admitted he "tightened up" while waiting. Dumas, the first man in his tory to high jump over seven feet (he turned the trick in 1956) did it again with his leap at Fresno. He tried twice more at seven feet, IVi inches (Es i f VTwoT sr X- u-nf The Great Whiskey of the Old West- TVAMHT UNNY BROOK FROM KENTUCKY SATISFIES BOTH GREAT AMERICAN VIHISKEY TASTES Some people like Blended Whiskey, some prefer Straight Bourbon.

Long had competed in a meet at Logan, Utah, the pre vious night, had travelled nearly 800 miles - and still topped the 60 foot mark on four out of seven attempts.
